Expert Reply:

I did find a reference to a trailer hub # 22834 that used a # 2788 inner and a # 1779 outer bearing, however I'm sorry to say the hub is obsolete and is no longer being manufactured. The hub has a 6 lug on 5-1/2 inch bolt circle.

Although the hub isn't available, we do offer the bearings, the races # 1729 and # 2729 and the grease seal # 29031.

If your hub(s) are damaged beyond repair, you'd need to replace the spindles or the entire axle. I can check on the availability of a replacement axle or spindle if you would reply with the following information. I'd need to know:

The axle capacity you need
Wheel bolt pattern (choose a more common one like 5 on 4-1/2)
Spring center to spring center dimension
Hub face to hub face dimension
